Nature is unbelievably bewitching!! It’s usually when I watch the rolling waves over a massive aquamarine sea, I get this feeling of insignificance. But last week, when I stood among the formidable range of the Blue Mountains, arrogantly standing tall, I felt so small, so overwhelmed by its magnificence. Don’t believe me? Here have a look – Pulpit Rock Lookout Walking Track
Pulpit Rock Lookout Walking Track
Blackheath was not on my list of must-see places. A few weeks back while I was looking for places with chances of snowfall, I came across Blackheath, a suburb in NSW (Australia), west of Katoomba, approx. 105 km from Sydney city. Google Images was filled with pictures of stunning lookouts and hiking tracks. This was enough for me to pack a picnic and along with my husband, drive off to spend a Saturday in the lap of nature.
Our first stop was Govett’s Leap Lookout, where we parked our car and geared up for hiking. Words cannot describe how stunning and peaceful the place looks. Blue is the color that was made just for Australia – blue seas, blue skies… even the mountains look blue.

Beautiful photography of a magnificent area. It is small wonder that it took explorers so many years to find a way to cross these ranges.
Oh yeah… I couldn't walk the next day after hiking just this much 😉 thank you for stopping by.
